We prove that, for every compact spaces K1,K2 and compact group G, if both K1 and K2 map continuously onto G, then the Banach space C(K1 × K2) contains a complemented subspace isometric to the Banach space C(G). Consequently, C(K1× K2) contains a complemented copy of C([0,1]) for every non-scattered K1,K2. Also, answering a question of Alspach and Galego, we get that C(βω×βω) contains a complemented copy of C([0,1]κ) for every cardinal number 1≤κ≤\mathfrak c and hence a complemented copy of C(K) for every metric compact space K. On the other hand, for the pointwise topology, we show that Cp(βω×βω) contains no complemented copy of Cp(2ω).
