Hello NishiJoy

White ganache always takes longer to set, just give it a mix, cover it up with some cling film and pop it in the fridge for an hour. If it sets too hard bring it back to working consistency by warming it in the microwave on the low setting for 20 seconds, or less, mix gently and warm again if still too stiff. It’s better to warm in very short bursts because white chocolate burns very easily. If the ganache has split it will have the appearance of cottage cheese or melted cheese.
