fluffy

Light and billowy

Fluffy describes something soft, light, and airy—covered with or resembling soft fibers or down: a fluffy kitten, fluffy clouds, fluffy towels fresh from the dryer.

Food that's fluffy has been aerated to lightness: fluffy scrambled eggs, fluffy pancakes.

Figuratively, fluffy content lacks substance or depth: The article was entertaining but fluffy.
