macaron love

HEART OF THE HOUSE

In October 2019, Chainé Pena opened Chainé in the historic plaza of Santa Fe. Chainé’s passion for cooking started at a young age where the kitchen was truly the heart of her family’s house. From there, she went on to partake in a pastry program and eventually a macaron class in France. Chainé became enthralled with the idea that a simple cookie can be transformed into an entire dessert experience in just a few bites.

MACARON LOVE

WHAT IS A MACARON?

A macaron, pronounced mack-a-ROHN, is a sandwich cookie made up of two round almond flour cookies with a variety of jams, ganaches, creams and other fillings inside. Macarons make for the perfect dessert bite to complement your wedding sweets or create a full macaron tower as the showpiece to your reception.

UNIQUE & UNUSUAL

Each scrumptious cookie is made with love in the shop’s open-concept kitchen, which truly lets every customer be a part of the process and enjoy the smell of freshly baked cookies. Unique and unusual flavor combinations create a rainbow of colorful bites from Churro made with cinnamon cream and filled with dulce de leche to Strawberry Rosé flavored with a gruet rosé reduction whipped into a swiss meringue and finished with strawberries. Other fan favorites include Chile Chocolate featuring local Chimayo red chiles and a dark chocolate ganache and Hazelnut Latte crafted with an espresso ganache, hazelnut cream and crunchy hazelnut center.
