That depends entirely on why you want to substitute something else for the fondant. If it's because you don't have the ingredients, there's a great "fondant frosting" recipe at allrecipes.com.

http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Fondant-Frosting/Detail.aspx

Ingredients for that recipe are: confectioners' sugar, water, light corn syrup, and almond extract. You can substitute vanilla extract for the almond extract (most people have vanilla). You can make your own version of the corn syrup by making a simple syrup. You can make simple syrup by bringing water to boil, stir in an equal amount of granulated sugar then drop the stove temp down to low. Continue stirring until all the crystals are gone--it is really important that ALL the crystals are gone. You can check it by lifting up a scoop of the mix and looking carefully to see if there are any crystals. That's it. Bottle it, and stick it in the fridge.

Do you have to put icing under the fondant on a cake?

No. You do not have to put icing under the fondant on a cake. You can bake a cake and not put any icing on it and just put fondant on it if you wish. No law forces you to put icing on the cake. With that said, How do you plan to stop the icing at the edge of the fondant? Which will you apply first? Normally sugar in the the icing causes it to stick to the cake and also causes the fondant to stick to the icing. So if you have messy people eating your cakes and do not want the fondant to fall off the plates onto the rug as they walk around the living room at a party, it would be best to use icing as a glue.
