Adding an element of amusement to traditional egg timers is the BeepEgg that creatively cooks an egg inside a silicone mold that then plays music to alert the user when the egg's cooking time is complete. The use of musical tunes offers a pleasant alternative to boiling whistles or beeping timers that are most commonly used.
The BeepEgg is a modern egg cooker that is shaped to look like the oval produce. The egg is placed inside the silicone device and placed inside a pot of water. The BeepEgg floats in the water and plays three distinct tunes to indicate different cooking textures, from soft-boiled to hard-boiled. The exterior of the egg timer is able to track the consistency of the egg based on an integrated temperature reader.
