Catalysis of the transfer of a galactose group from UDP-galactose to an acceptor molecule. Catalysis of the reaction: UDP-galactose + 2-(2-hydroxyacyl)sphingosine = UDP + 1-(beta-D-galactosyl)-2-(2-hydroxyacyl)sphingosine. Catalysis of the transfer of a glycosyl group from a UDP-sugar to a small hydrophobic molecule. Catalysis of the transfer of a galactosyl group to an acceptor molecule, typically another carbohydrate or a lipid.
