Growing up we did not have a dishwasher, well we did if you count my three sisters and myself, so that is why when we moved into our new home I made sure that a dishwasher was one of the appliances. I hated doing dishes that much. But now it seems that my daughters have inherited that trait from me. They fight over who will load and unload the dishes sometimes leaving piles in the sink.

Having two teenagers and a preteen you can imagine what the dishes look like going into the dishwasher. They do not believe in rinsing or even scraping the plates. I will admit that sometimes I wonder if those dishes will ever get clean but they do. Why because we use Cascade Platinum dishwashing detergent. Did you know that has the grease fighting power of Dawn dishwashing detergent? I have always been a big fan of Dawn, but I am an even bigger fan now. It also eliminates the need for prewashing the dishes and with a house of teenagers that is a big plus. Here is another great thing about Cascade Platinum it is that scrubs away food that has been left on the plate for 24 hours. ( Sshh!! Let this be our little secret – My girls do not need to know!)

I will have to say that I was using another brand before I got the chance to try out Cascade Platinum and I have decided that this is the brand for my family.

Here are some of the reasons why:

  • We host a lot of parties, and there is nothing more embarrassing than to pull out a dish and realize that it is still dirty even though it has been washed.
  • I have also noticed that inside of the dishwasher is a lot cleaner. Now if only they make a product that would instantly clean the outside as well.
  • No more washing and rewashing of dishes because they did not come clean. Remember teenagers who just want to get the job done so they can get on their electronics.

I also love that fact that Cascade has teamed up with Gail Simmons, Top Chef Judge and editor of Food+Wine magazine, to discuss why presentation is just as important as preparation. Here are some key points that she emphasizes:

  • 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.”

What is even more fascinating about this brand is that they are holding a contest on Instagram. Here are the rules
