Sure, you can use an egg cup.
My faves are white ceramic ones from Pier 1, which are a very affordable $1.50 each.
I used them when I created this sweet ornament for someone's very special First Christmas:
They work for Sweet Sweater Snowbabies, and they work for eggs...
but I tend to like to be a bit more original with the way I display things, don't you?!
Using an egg cup to display an egg is just so.... normal.

* tiny trucks make a perfect holder for an egg...

With the addition of a name to each egg,
added with a paint pen or colorful marker,
these displays become perfect place cards for your table!
Here's one for the door instead of the table:
Simply fill a wire basket with Easter grass (or moss!) and colorful eggs.
Tuck in faux flowers (or a small water bottle for fresh blooms).
and hang on your door to greet your guests in HOPPY EASTER style!
