The Sweetest Way to Learn and Imagine.
Dwane Butler’s Non-Profit Program.
Child To Chef is an educational food program that uses cooking to teach children far more than what ends up on a plate. Through workshops in schools and community centers, young learners discover healthier eating choices, the history and origins of food, and essential kitchen safety practices such as proper food storage, handwashing, safe temperatures, and avoiding cross-contamination. The program also includes social and emotional learning activities that encourage children to work together, communicate, and build confidence through shared experiences. After cooking, a fun lollipop quiz helps reinforce what they have learned in a way that feels rewarding and memorable. At its heart, Child To Chef is not only about making food. It is about building self-esteem, teamwork, curiosity, and pride in every child who takes part.

A Dessert Adventure to Remember!
The Dessert Adventures of Rodney and Remi As They Make Delicious Desserts invites children into a bright, joyful world where baking and storytelling come together in the sweetest way. Written by Dwane Butler and illustrated by Adil Khan, the book follows two curious young chefs as they whisk, stir, and sprinkle their way through delicious desserts creations.
From rich delicious desserts to classic red velvet cake, each adventure transforms a recipe into a playful journey that feels exciting, imaginative, and joyful. The rhyming storytelling keeps every page lively and memorable, while the recipe flow helps children understand how each step leads to something wonderful. It is a book that makes the kitchen feel friendly, creative, and full of possibilities.
