creamy

Like soft butter

Creamy describes a smooth, rich texture like cream—soft, thick, and flowing without lumps or graininess: a creamy sauce, creamy peanut butter.

The word extends to pale yellowish-white colors: creamy white walls.

Creamy suggests indulgence and richness: The risotto was perfectly creamy.
