Darell can make 12 different white pizzas.

To see why, we can use the multiplication principle of counting. We have 6 choices for the crust, and for each crust choice, we have 2 choices for the cheese topping. So the total number of pizza varieties is:

6 crust choices × 2 cheese choices for each crust = 12 different white pizzas.
