Egg Cups
Egg cups make your breakfast neater, more practical and better presented. They keep a boiled egg firmly in place and instantly give the table a little more attention. In this collection, you’ll find egg cups that are easy to combine with your existing tableware, from simple shapes to more organic models in ceramic and stoneware.
Egg cups for everyday use
A good egg cup doesn’t have to stand out to work well. It’s the small details that make the difference at the table. Think of a stable shape, a comfortable height and a material that feels solid. Many people choose ceramic or stoneware because it looks warm, is easy to combine and is suitable for everyday use. Looking for something that matches the rest of your table? Then take a look at tableware or combine it with a set of lovely mugs for a complete breakfast.
Buying guide: what should you look for?
1. Choose the right size
Most egg cups are suitable for standard eggs in size M or L. If you often use larger eggs, look for a slightly wider opening or a model with a deeper cup. That gives you more support while eating.
2. Pay attention to shape and stability
A wider base usually sits more firmly on the table. That’s handy when you tap open your egg at the table. Round shapes look a little softer, while cleaner designs suit a modern table setting well.
3. Choose a material that suits you
Ceramic and stoneware are popular choices. They feel sturdy, often have a lovely finish and combine well with other items from the kitchen. A matte glaze gives a calm look, while subtle colour variations add a little more character.
4. Think about mixing and matching
Want a sense of unity on the table? Then choose egg cups in a shade that returns in your plates, mugs or tea set. If you’re serving an elaborate breakfast, a matching teapot makes the whole setting even more practical and balanced.
How to use and combine egg cups
Place an egg cup on a small plate or breakfast plate so you have space for a spoon and some eggshells. If you have a calm base on the table, different egg cups for each person also come together beautifully without looking cluttered. Off-white, sand, grey and dark earthenware are colours that mix easily with existing tableware. That way, you don’t have to replace everything at once.
Practical tips for the table
- Choose a stable model if children are joining breakfast.
- Use a small plate under the egg cup for extra convenience.
- Combine neutral colours if you often switch up your tableware.
- A matte finish usually makes fingerprints less noticeable.
- Mixing several shapes works well when colour and material complement each other.
