Disclosed herein are hard surface cleaning compositions comprising, for example, a pH modifying agent in an amount sufficient to provide an alkaline pH; and a foaming system comprising: a nonionic ethoxylated/propoxylated surfactant; and a nonionic ethoxylated surfactant; wherein the concentration of the nonionic ethoxylated surfactant is greater than the concentration of the nonionic ethoxylated/propoxylated surfactant; and wherein the foaming system provides a structured network comprising a matrix having interstitial spaces. Methods of making and using these compositions are also described.
