A method that produces a powdered fabric cleaner is disclosed. The cleaner has a reduced level of fines. One introduces at least one particulate material and at least one liquid material into a mixing vessel to form a mixture, blends the mixture for a first period of time, chops the mixture for at least a portion of the first period of time, and thereafter blends the mixture without chopping for a second period of time. In one form the cleaning composition has at least 80% by weight of inorganic salt carrier particulates, 1-10% by weight of flow agent particulates, and 0.1-15% by weight of a liquid active material, such as a fragrance, a surfactant, a solvent, or a pesticide. At least 90.0% of the composition particulates have a particle size greater than 0.105 millimeters.
