Preparation:

Line 9-inch (2.5 L) square metal cake pan with parchment paper to extend 1 inch (2.5 cm) above rim on 2 sides, or grease; set aside.

In large bowl, combine white chocolate with orange rind; set aside. In small saucepan, heat butter with cream over medium heat until steaming; pour over chocolate mixture and stir until melted. Stir in cherries and coconut. Stir in cookie crumbs in 2 batches until blended. Scrape into prepared pan, smoothing top. Chill until firm, about 1 hour.

Icing: In bowl, stir together butter, orange juice and cream; stir in icing sugar in 2 batches. Spread over cherry mixture and smooth using offset metal spatula dipped in hot water, shaking off excess water. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 1 week or overwrap with heavy-duty foil and freeze for up to 2 weeks.)

Using parchment paper handles, transfer to cutting board; peel paper from sides. Wiping knife with damp cloth between cuts, trim edges and cut into bars or squares as desired.
