Cascarón
A cascarón (plural cascarones, without accent mark; from Spanish cascarón, "eggshell," the augmentative form of cáscara, "shell") is a hollowed-out chicken egg filled with confetti or small toys. Cascarones was originally invented in Mexico in the mid-1800s by Emperor Maximilian’s wife. It was in Mexico that the perfumed powder was replaced with confetti. Having a cascarón broken over one's head is said to bring good luck; however, concerns over salmonella poisoning eroded support for the practice beginning in 2003.
