Hic's double egg cups are used for serving and enjoying soft-boiled and hard-boiled eggs. Eggs have played a starring role in food culture since the dawn of time and the use of egg cups dates back to 18th century BC. Egg cups carefully cradle boiled eggs, holding them in place for easier eating with less mess. The classic design of HIC's double egg cup elevates the egg and adds stability for easier handling for a certain elegant presentation at any table. Easy to use. Simply place a hard-boiled or soft-boiled egg, pointy end up, into the appropriately sized cup. Use the smaller cup for enjoying eggs while still in their shell. The larger cup allows ample room to chop and season eggs after their shell has been removed and to garnish with crumbled toast, bacon or ham before being enjoyed. To access the portion of egg still inside its shell, gently tap the shell with a knife or spoon around its circumference to crack it below the pointy tip. Remove the top, then scoop out and enjoy every delicious bite. Dunk buttered toast cut into strips, traditionally called toast soldiers, or triangle-shaped toast points into the yolk. Made from fine-quality porcelain, HIC's double egg cups are safe for use in the microwave, oven, freezer and dishwasher. They won't transfer odors, colors or flavors between uses. Easy to clean. Dishwasher safe. HIC's double egg cup set includes 6 porcelain egg cups.

After washing it couple times the color starts to dissapear and it looks a little older than it should be

For normal sized chicken eggs, the product picture has to be turned 180°. The large opening what the egg cups stand on and the small one is where the egg goes in.

These are just like the egg cups used by CP & CN rail in the 1960s. They can be used either way up. Put the egg in the small cup to eat it out of the shell. Or, spoon it into the big cup to add butter & mix it up. Yummy! Also, The egg can be put under the cup to keep warm or to keep from toppling off the plate on the way to the table. Some things can not be improved upon & this is one of them.

If you are looking to have a family soft-boiled egg party, then these double egg cups are just what you need! They're sturdy, easy to clean and perfect for six people to enjoy one egg apiece, three people to enjoy two soft boiled eggs each or one person to looking for satisfy a craving to eat a half dozen eggs. Heat up some water, pop in your six eggs, reduce the heat to simmer and tell Alexa to set a six and a half minute timer! While you're waiting, fill up a bowl of ice water into which you can place your eggs once Alexa's timer sounds off. Soft. Boiled. Egg. Perfection!

First of all, these things are huge. An egg disappears inside them so there's no way they can be used as an egg cup. If you turn them over to use the small end, the edge of the rim is rough and unfinished, so clearly not expected to be used. Secondly, this is not fine porcelain. These things are thick-walled, heavy, and chunky. There's nothing "fine" about them. I do not believe their photo is of the same thing because in the photo they do look like thin-walled porcelain, not the heavy, chunky, huge things these are.

Llegaron a tiempo y en muy buen estado. Vienen en su caja protegidos y a parte Amazon lo protege más.El tamaño no es inconveniente ya que puedes usar las copas de distintas maneras y se adecuan a los huevos.

Very happy with these. My 10 yr old son likes soft boiled eggs (I've trained him to like them because they're easy). I like the large side since I remove the shell for him. Here's my process- I use the small side to hold the egg once I remove it from the pan, while I take each egg and run under cold water. Then, I crack the top of the egg, chip off some shell, flip the egg cup to the large side and scoop the egg out of the shell and into the cup for him. The small side is a little shallow if you plan to use that side to eat it out of the shell.

I ordered the double egg cups thinking that the larger part would hold a 2nd egg and keep it warm while the first egg placed in the smaller end was being eaten, but the large end isn't large enough to fit over a large egg. Perhaps it would fit over a small egg.The cups are thick and substantial and work well otherwise.

The large size cup part is too big for any of my eggs; but the small size cup part fits all my eggs. I use these daily.

Great quality egg cups. The small side fits the average boiled egg perfectly and is very sturdy for cutting and dipping toast with its larger base. I find the base really useful for holding freshly prepared spices and chopped herbs instead of using a bowl. Nice and heavy, dishwasher safe.
