I was recently asked why some sugar spoons are shaped like seashells.   
Although I understand why they are called sugar shells, I can not  
recall any reason I have heard for WHY they are that shape.  If anyone  
has  documentation for the reasoning behind the shape (especially  
other than it just looks nice), I would love to have it, as would the  
volunteer who has now had their curiosity peaked.

Thanks in advance!
Tamara
