Provided is an oral care composition comprising a peroxide source, a polyhydric alcohol and a surfactant system having an HLB value of from 4 to 13, wherein the combined amount of the polyhydric alcohol and the surfactant system is from 60 weight % to 95 weight % by total weight of the composition, and wherein the weight ratio of the polyhydric alcohol to the surfactant system is from 9:1 to 1:4. The composition is resistant to peroxide decomposition.
