Light duty liquid cleaning composition containing alkyl sucroglycerides

A clear light duty liquid cleaning composition which consisting essentially of approximately by weight:

• (a) 0.5% to 22% of an alkali metal or ammonium salt of a C.sub.8-18 ethoxylated alkyl ether sulfate;
• (b) 0.1% to 8% of a sucroglyceride surfactant;
• (c) 0.5% to 10% of a magnesium salt of a C.sub.10 -C.sub.16 alkyl benzene sulfonate surfactant;
• (d) 0% to 12% of at least one solubilizing agent;
• (e) 3% to 20% of an alkyl polyglucoside surfactant;
• (f) 1% to 6% of a C.sub.12 -C.sub.14 alkyl monoalkanol amide;
• (g) 1% to 8% of a zwitterionic surfactant;
• (h) 0 to 30% of an ethoxylated nonionic surfactant;
• and
• (i) the balance being water, wherein the compositions do not contain any grease release agents or an oil phase essentially insoluble in the aqueous phase present at a concentration of about 3 to 15 wt. % in the composition or an emulsification system which comprises an oil soluble, water dispersible component having about 0.5 to 8 wt. % of a fatty acid or guar and a quaternized cellulose polymer or a vegetable oil mixture.
