Identical means they appear (look) the same. Identical twins appear to be the same people. Identical cookies look alike. If you show up in identical outfits with your friend, you can also say you're wearing the same thing.

So it's identical if it looks alike but the same if the difference doesn't matter. I hope that's not too confusing.
