Easy Homemade Divinity Candy (2024)

FAQs

Why is divinity candy so hard to make? ›

As sugar attracts water, any humidity or moisture in the air can affect how your divinity turns out. Divinity should be dry and set within two hours, but have patience. It may take a little longer.

Divinity is a confection made from egg whites, corn syrup, and sugar. It's similar to nougat, fudge, or marshmallow. Tip: replace the sugar with brown sugar to create "sea foam." Other ingredients can be used to give the candy other tastes, like chopped dried fruit and chopped nuts.

Consider this: divinity hates humidity. It's best to make divinity on a cool, dry day. If it's humid (over 50%) or rainy, the candy might end up with a more gooey, or grainy texture.

If your divinity candy fails to harden, add 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar and beat again. Allow it to rest for about 15 minutes. This will absorb more moisture and will allow your sweet treat to harden. If you want your divinity candy to soften up a bit add hot water a tablespoon at a time and beat it again.

You can sometimes correct a divinity fail. If it is too stiff, add very hot water, beating in a half tablespoon at a time until it reaches a fluffy consistency. If it is too thin and does not set, try adding 1/2 tablespoon at a time of powdered sugar until it thickens.

Divinity candy is also safe. Avoid icing recipes using uncooked eggs or egg whites. However, "seven-minute frosting," made by combining hot sugar syrup with beaten egg whites, is safe. Casseroles, quiches and other dishes containing eggs should be cooked to 160 degrees.

Corn Syrup – This is added to stop the sugar from crystalizing giving you a very smooth, chewy texture that's not grainy. Sugar – White granulated sugar is the best for this recipe, avoid brown sugar or it'll affect both the taste and look of the divinity.

Store at room temperature 1 to 2 weeks. Layer fudge pieces or divinity between waxed paper in an airtight container to prevent from quickly drying out.

Divinity candy can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. It can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 month. If you are storing divinity candy in the refrigerator, let it come to room temperature before cutting it into squares.

Make sure your beater is up to it, though. Making divinity will overheat the motors of portable mixers and most lightweight free-standing mixers. And don't try making divinity when the humidity is above 60%. No matter how long you beat the mixture, it will remain too runny to form into mounds.

How do you craft divinity? ›

To craft most items, you only need to drag one ingredient on top of another. For example, to craft a simple Minor Healing Potion, you need a Penny Bun Mushroom and an Empty Potion Bottle. To craft it, simply drag either item onto the other. Assuming your Crafting level is high enough, the item will be created.

You can use a hand-held mixer to beat your egg whites and do the initial mixing, but once the divinity gets thick and creamy, you'll have to finish mixing it by hand. The hand mixer motor isn't strong enough to beat it when it's thick.

When focusing on the main objectives, Divinity: Original Sin is about 66½ Hours in length. If you're a gamer that strives to see all aspects of the game, you are likely to spend around 108 Hours to obtain 100% completion.

Stunned can be removed only through spells or scrolls.

This is one of the few games where normal difficulty is actually difficult, especially for new players. try lowering the difficulty until you understand mechanics and interactions better, when you feel that lower difficulties are too easy then you can think about raising it if you want.
