Any ideas for 'bowling' decor on kids cupcakes??

the cupcakes are iced in buttercream, but the toppings in this pic are made of fondant..which most kids don't like, i've found.

any suggestions, other than searching for plastic bowling pins/balls, for using something else to make the pins/balls? a candy or something i haven't thought of??

(yeah, just so happens my ds's name is Jack, too. lol.)

For the balls you can use gobstoppers. I have no clue what you would use for bowling pins though.

BOWLING BALL CUPCAKES - Make cupcakes and frost them with chocolate frosting. To give them the look of a bowling ball, create smooth frosting mounds on each cupcake. Pipe out 3 white finger holes on each one.
