Or it would make them bounce around and fly all over the place.

If you've used the particle/hair system to scatter them there then you could click "Make Instances Real" and then they'd become real objects that you could manually move around in a tedious manner.

And whether all this is worth the effort depends on if anyone is going to see it well enough to notice they overlap

Ok, yes you can.
It was a bit of a faff and if you don't have the right collision settings then they fidget around forever but ... it's doable.
EDIT: They do seem to float a little bit above the plate and I'm not sure how it'd work with less symmetrical objects.

Dropping them into the bowl with a physics simulation would possibly make them sit better and not overlap (depending on collision shapes and so on).

Now I'm trying it with different shaped objects and the plate isn't working. 
Need to research.

All this assumes I know how to do the simulation in the first place... And while I can see the gaps and overlaps up close, I don't think it'd be at all visible in the finished image. Which will probably be a screenshot and not a render
