Great question! Divinity and nougat are similar but not the same. Both are chewy and often made with egg whites and sugar, but divinity typically has a lighter texture and is made with corn syrup, while nougat usually includes nuts and can be a bit denser. Plus, divinity is often flavored with vanilla or sometimes has nuts mixed in, too. So, while they share some ingredients, they each have their own unique taste and texture!
