chubby cheeks

Round facial feature

Chubby cheeks are full, rounded cheeks with soft flesh, typically associated with babies, young children, or plump faces generally.

The phrase often carries affectionate connotations—adults pinch chubby cheeks or coo over them: Look at those chubby cheeks!

The feature suggests health and youthful cuteness rather than obesity.
