Morphology

creaminess = creamy (transparent) = cream + y + ness

Formed regularly from the adjective 'creamy' with the productive noun-forming suffix '-ness', so the meaning is directly derived.

Etymology

The word creaminess comes from the simple word cream, the soft, fatty part of milk, plus the ending -iness, which means 'the quality of'. So creaminess means 'the quality of being like cream', smooth, thick and rich.
