Cascade Platinum Dishwashing Soap makes my Dishes Sparkle! #MyPlatinum

I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Cascade. I received a product sample to facilitate my review and a promotional item as a thank you for participating. As always all opinions are 100% my own

I don’t think that Dishwashing is anyone’s favorite activity and it definitely isn’t mine! Thank goodness I have a dishwasher as I can only imagine what my kitchen would look like without one 😉

That said, I have a tendency to practically clean the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher as otherwise they don’t get clean.  Little did I know, that may have something to do with the detergent that I was using.  I was recently sent the new Cascade Platinum tablets to check out and WOW!

I decided to give it a run for its money. I loaded up the dishwasher with a bunch of dishes that I hadn’t even rinsed. Just took them from the sink and tossed them in.

As you can see… the dog wanted to help 😉

I loaded the pack in and washed and look at all that grunge on the bowl in the dishwasher.   Well look at it right out of the dishwasher!

Woohoo!!  I was quite excited that these Cascade Platinum pacs completed eliminated my need to wash the dishes before loading them.  And I don’t have any fancy dishwasher either.

Now, more than ever, people eat with their eyes, and the evidence is all over sites like Facebook and Instagram. With that in mind, Top Chef judge and editor of Food+Wine magazine, Gail Simmons, has partnered with Cascade to discuss why presentation is just as important as preparation.

• From prep to plating: It’s more than just a great-tasting recipe, but also perfect presentation. Sparkling dishes, shining flat ware and spot-free glasses truly let you put your best food forward with culinary creations that pop!
• Gail recommends impressing with a Platinum Presentation: “The easiest recipes pop with unexpected, gourmet presentations. Drizzle bright sauces on sparkling white plates or layer desserts in crystal-clean glassware. Keep your presentation sparkling with Cascade Platinum, which keeps dishes perfect for anytime entertaining and impromptu guests.”
