A process for forming solid cast detergent products comprising the steps of: (a) forming an aqueous detergent slurry comprising from about 60 to about 90 parts by weight of solid detergent ingredients, per 100 parts of total detergent slurry weight, said solid detergent ingredients comprising: (i) from about 5 to about 50 parts by weight of a surfactant; (ii) from about 0.1 to about 10 parts by weight of a salt-form builder component; (iii) from about 30 to about 75 parts by weight of a hydrated alkaline component; (b) adding from about 0.5 to about 10 parts by weight of a sugar surfactant selected from the group consisting of an alkyl polyglycoside, a glucamide, and mixtures thereof, to form a uniform dispersion; and (c) casting said uniform dispersion to form a solid cast detergent product. |
