    (54) Bleaching composition


    (57) A foam-depressing agent, preferably silicone, is introduced into a bleaching composition, preferably hypochlorite, containing foaming synthetic detergent, prior to filling containers with the composition. The foam depressing agent then decomposes during storage, thus giving containers of a foaming composition while avoiding difficulties of foaming during filling of the containers.
