Heat is retained in a Styrofoam cup bu stacking at least 2 and place a lid. Because Styrofoam is well insulated, it retains the heat, and by added a minimum of 2 cups, it increases the amount of insulation. It is also important to note, that some heat will still be lost, and you will be able to tell if you can feel the heat through the outer cup.

Which type of cup will keep a hot drink, warm longer paper, plastic, Styrofoam or glass?
Styrofoam cups are generally the best at keeping hot drinks warm for a longer period of time. This is because Styrofoam is an excellent insulator, meaning it does not conduct heat well and therefore helps to keep the temperature of the drink constant. Paper cups and plastic cups are also decent insulators, but they are not as effective as Styrofoam. Glass cups are poor insulators and are not recommended for keeping hot drinks warm.
