Morphology

creamy = cream (transparent) = cream + y

Formed by the productive adjective-making suffix '-y' added to the noun 'cream', giving a color quality; meaning is directly inferable.

Etymology

Creamy comes from the common word cream (the pale, fatty layer from milk) plus the ending -y, which means 'full of' or 'like'. So creamy for color means 'the color of cream' — a soft, pale yellow-white.
