8 ounces of Ghirardelli white chocolate for baking contains 1,150 calories. This figure is based on the
nutrition facts found on the wrapper.

But the amount can differ. Each company uses it’s own recipe but must adhere to the Standards of Identity for chocolate products. The FDA requires white chocolate to contain at least 20% cocoa butter by weight, at least 14% total milk solids by weight and not more than 55% nutritive carbohydrate sweetener (sugar) by weight.

Best bet is to check the nutrition facts on the label.
