buttery texture
Melts in mouth
A buttery texture is smooth, rich, and soft—like butter at room temperature.
The phrase describes foods that melt or spread easily: The avocado had a buttery texture.
It extends to fabrics, leather, or other materials that feel supple and luxurious to the touch: The jacket's buttery texture justified the price.
