Hi Coll123

I hope I have understood that you made ganache from galaxy chocolate 2:1 ratio.

Galaxy is milk chocolate and doesn’t contain a lot of cocoa solids so it doesn’t set in the same way as dark chocolate. Try 3:1 ratio next time and it will set.
You may find this ganache chart and blog useful http://www.cakeflix.com/blog/how-to-ganache-cakes-without-gnashing-your-teeth
Hope it helps.
