Morphology

creamless = cream (transparent) = cream + less

The adjective is directly formed by adding the productive suffix '-less' to the noun 'cream', meaning 'without cream'.

Etymology

Creamless is made from cream meaning 'the thick, fatty part of milk' and the ending -less meaning 'without', and you can see the same -less in hopeless. So, creamless simply means 'not containing cream' or 'made without cream'.
