This delightful Halloween egg mold turns your breakfast into a smily skeleton. From ThinkGeek, the Egg-o-matic Skull Egg Mold is a fun way to make even your [morning meal](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halloween-oreo-puffs-cereal) more seasonally appropriate with its [skull shape](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheetos-bag-of-bones).

To use, simply put a hard boiled egg into the mold, press and cool. Whether you enjoy them first thing in the morning for a protein-packed energy boost or later in the day, you can't go wrong. Instead of taking a scary approach, this grinning face is [appropriate for children](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oriental-trading). However, only those over the age of 12 should use the mold as it contains small parts.

Made out of food-safe plastic, the Halloween egg mold needs to be hand-washed.
