An egg cup is a small cup or vessel designed to hold a boiled egg upright during eating. Traditionally used at breakfast, the soft-boiled egg sits in the cup whilst the diner removes the top of the shell and scoops out the contents with a small spoon. Egg cups come in various materials including ceramic, porcelain, glass, wood and plastic. They range from functional everyday items to decorative pieces, and are often collected for their diverse designs and colours.
