Maybe egg cups have been around for a while, but these particular designs sure haven't. Take a look at these new takes on the old egg cup:
1: Berghoff Kubic 4 Piece Egg Cup Set, $29 at CSN Stores
2: Positano Egg Cup, $2.29 each at Sur la Table
3: Eiio Egg Cup, $13 for 4 at Vessel
4:Sieger Matroschischka Egg Cup, $220 at Michael C. Fina
5: Melamine Egg Cup Set, £14.00 at The Other Duckling

I just bought Pillivuyt's Plisse egg cups and I love them. Not only do they work for eggs, but they make perfect mini ramekins for all kinds of amuses.
I have the Eiio Egg cups that someone bought me as a wedding gift. They're very cute, but they don't hold your egg very well, which makes it harder to eat it with a spoon.
Egg cups are easy to find...HOWEVER finding a proper egg spoon is not. Luckily I have a nice set that was passed down to me by my German mother-in-law, but I have tried to find egg spoons for housewarming gifts and I have not had any luck. Any suggestions on retailers?
