A disposable all-purpose container assembly includes a disposable frustoconical container formed from polymer coated paper and a saddle-like insulation attachment straddling an associated portion of the container sidewall and mounted in fixed position on the sidewall. A raw edge of the sidewall blank is sealed with polymer tape to prevent wicking or migration of liquid from the container into the sidewall. The tape also enhances the bond along the sidewall seam. The insulation attachment has a plurality of spaced apart ribs which engage the outer surface of the sidewall. The ribs, and portions of the outer surface of the sidewall and inner surface of the insulation attachment define air spaces between the container and the insulation attachment. The insulation attachment has a pair of handle sections movable to a holding position for optional use. A ribbed insulation sleeve provided with the handle sections foldable to a holding position to form a handle for optional use on a frustoconical all-purpose container of disposable type is also disclosed.
