An assembly of a tray booklet and rolling paper holder, the individual booklet and individual rolling paper holder. The booklet is suitable for smokables comprising a compostable cover body comprising a sheet defining an inner surface and an outer surface, and smoking paraphernalia arranged on the inner surface. The sheet includes first lines of weakness for the cover body to fold along from an open configuration into a closed configuration and vice versa. In the closed configuration the sheet encloses the smoking paraphernalia. In the open configuration the smoking paraphernalia are uncovered. The sheet includes at least one second line of weakness for the body to fold along from an open configuration into a channel configuration and vice versa. In the channel configuration the sheet forms a first and a second upstanding ondulation defining a holding channel therebetween for holding the smokables. The rolling paper holder is folded from a single sheet cutout such that the holder defines an inner volume for holding trapezoid rolling papers therein in a stack. The cutout comprises lines of weakness arranged such that they define a plurality of trapezoid areas and along which lines of weakness the cutout is folded into the holder. The plurality of trapezoid areas include a trapezoid outlet provided with a slit for allowing a rolling paper closest to the outlet area to be removed from the stack therethrough, and a trapezoid base forming a base of the holder opposite the trapezoid outlet area.
