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.

How do bakers get they cakes to look smooth?
Well first of all you need to have a particular shaped -out icing spread and if you watch many ADS (advertisments).You can see they always will say about icing spreaders. Cover the iced cake with a sheet of wax paper and smooth it out with your hand. Refrigerate the cake for awhile and peel off the wax paper once the icing has hardened. You will know it is ready when the icing does not stick to the paper. Another way to have the effect of smooth icing is to use fondant. It is like dough, but it is made mostly out of sugar and its easier than trying to get icing smooth..

Dalda, a brand of vegetable shortening, can be used in fondant icing to achieve a smoother texture and improve workability. However, it is not a traditional ingredient for fondant, which typically relies on ingredients like glucose, sugar, and gelatin. If using Dalda, ensure it is well incorporated, but be mindful that it may alter the flavor and consistency compared to classic fondant recipes. It's best to experiment with small batches to find the right balance.

You can, but since fondant is used mainly for its smooth appearance and not used as a 'solo frosting', you first need to ice the cake with a cream cheese frosting, which is the more commonly used frosting for carrot cakes. The fondant can then be added on top of that for decorating purposes if you like.
Can you put icing under your fondant on a cake?
Yes. Fondant has a very interesting texture and the few times I have had it its been very interesting. The kind i had was almond flavored and was very nice. I see no reason to not eat it unless the baker used the cheap Wilton brand fondant that you can buy from wal mart. That stuff tastes like plastic and I would not recommend eating it.

However, it can firm up slightly when refrigerated or left at room temperature for a while, but it will not achieve a completely firm texture.
How do you decorate cakes?
The simplest thing to do is to icing the cake. Icing can be either made or bought from a store. After that, it depends on what you want to do. People sometimes put toppings (coconut shavings, chocolate pieces / shaving, icing designs, sprinkles, nuts, fruit, cookie crumbs, and so on) onto the cake. Other make designs in the icing or use extra icing to add flair like icing flowers or swirls. Some color the icing to change the look. You can also use fondant, but that is getting a bit more professional.
