"egg cup" news and stories

Talking of egg cups, good ol' Nigella has added one to her range of kitchen ware. It costs just £4.50 and incorporates a plate for soldiers too! Available in two colours - Duck Egg Blue (ho ho) and Cream.

On her website she writes "Sometimes things just seem right: I wanted an egg cup with a quiet organic design as simple as an egg’s. A small, plain cup sits in an ovoid saucer, with space for a small mound of salt and a few buttered fingers. I feel it’s important to be made happy at the start of the day, and this does it for me."

Also new to the range are a Hug Mug (£14.50) and a cake stand (£15). In a similar vein to the egg cup the hug mug it incorporates a saucer for holding biscuits, cake or bread. The cake stand is not going to be available until May though.
