Biology
Slurpuff with its mouth open and fangs visible
Slurpuff is a white, bipedal Pokémon. It has reddish-pink eyes with white pupils and is usually seen with its tongue poking out of the corner of its mouth. When its mouth is open, two upper fangs can be seen. On top of its head is a mass of fluffy pink fur with a red cherry-like sphere on top. On either side of its head, its pink fur forms a spherical shape similar to ears. Around its neck is a wavy, red collar and there is a red spot on the left side of its chest. It has small, pink feet with three toes and stubby arms.
Slurpuff has an exceptionally keen sense of smell that is 100 million times stronger than that of a human. This allows it to distinguish even the faintest of smells and assist pastry chefs in the cooking. Slurpuff can tell a person's mental and physical condition by taking in their scent. Its fur contains a lot of air, making it light and soft to the touch.
Prior to Generation VII, Slurpuff and its pre-evolved form, Swirlix, were the only known Pokémon that could have Sweet Veil as an Ability.

Trivia
Origin
Slurpuff is based on meringue, a dessert made from whipped egg whites and sugar. It is often topped with whipped cream and fruits to create a meringue nest. The red sphere on its head resembles a fruit topping such as a strawberry or cherry, which may refer to the phrase "Cherry on top". Meringue is also used as a sweet base on other various desserts such as cakes, pies, and pastries. Slurpuff may also be based on cupcakes or Japanese-style mille-feuille. Cupcakes are sometimes referred to as fairy cakes, which may be an inspiration for its type. Considering its lolling tongue, nose, paws, ear-like circular extensions on its head, and exceptional sense of smell, it may also be based on a dog, possibly a Bichon Frise or poodle. The pink part of its body resembles a bib and the spot under it resembles a food stain.
Name origin
Slurpuff may be a combination of slurp and puff.
Peroream may be a combination of ペロペロ peropero (onomatopoeia for licking) and cream.
