You can use the 'merge' command if you have quantity style balloons, if you do not want the quantity of the items in the balloons then you will need to create a custom balloon symbol (Format > Symbol Gallery > Define and copy from symbol, then you can use the already created symbol as a reference)

In the Attributes of the new symbol you will need to use a Radial Leader and select the circle in the symbol for placing.

Change the type of the balloons in the region to Custom, select your new symbol and you will be able to merge your balloons Table > BOM balloons > merge
