Caribe Puerto Rico U.S.A. X-3

Caribe Puerto Rico U.S.A. X-3 cup or bowl? I would like some assistance as to whether this is a cup or bowl and what is its use? My mom told me it is a sherbert bowl but I wonder is it Ramekin or Custard Cup. Dimensions are about 3 7/8" top dia. x 2" bottom dia. x 2" tall. Thank you for your assistance in this request. Rob

 

I think it's called a custard cup, but use it for whatever. There are a couple on the worthpoint site but not this pattern, by Caribe. I guess the fact they call theirs custard cups doesn't make it so, but, there you are.

Might try the word "ramekin".

 

Thank you. Looks like x-3 was made in one of these months July-Sept. in the year
