| has gloss | eng: An egg cup, sometimes called egg server, is a container used for serving boiled eggs within their shell. Egg cups have an upwardly concave portion to hold the egg and often include a base to raise the egg retaining portion and give stability, informally known as footies. Other types include: no pedestal, just a cup known as "buckets" and egg-sized on one side and bigger on the other end known as "doubles". Egg cups can be made of china, pottery, wood, plastic, glass and various metals or bakelite. Some are made of two materials (wood and ceramic). |
