The invention is directed to a process for preparing a water-soluble article comprising a water-soluble primary thermoformed component and a water-soluble secondary component arranged therein, as well as the water-soluble article itself. The process may comprise (a) forming the primary component into a pocket, by thermoforming in the cavity of a thermoforming mould； (b) adding the secondary component to the mould； (c) introducing the contents of the primary component into the pocket； and (d) sealing the primary component, characterized in that the cavity of the thermoforming mould has a recess to receive the secondary component.
