• Preheat the oven to 425˚F (220˚C). Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Chill a large bowl in the freezer.
• Add the melted chocolate to a small piping bag or zip-top bag and cut ⅛ inch (3 mm) off the tip of the bag.

• In a large pot, bring the water, butter, salt, and sugar to a boil over high heat.
• Once the water begins to boil, remove the pot from the heat and immediately add the flour, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon until the liquid is absorbed and the mixture begins to form a ball.

• Using a piping bag with a standard round tip, fill the bag with the batter.
• Place 1-inch (2 cm) dollops on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, spaced at least 1-inch (2 cm) apart.

• Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 375˚F (190˚C), and bake for 15 minutes.
• Let puffs cool completely.

• Fill a piping bag fitting with a small round tip with the custard. Gently fill the puff shells with the custard.
• Add the sugar, corn syrup, and water to a pan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and put the lid on, cooking for 5 minutes without moving. Remove the lid and cook for an additional 7-10 minutes, until the caramel is a deep amber color and reaches 300˚F (150˚C).
• Remove the pan from the heat and add the heavy cream, stirring vigorously.
• Working quickly, dip the cream puffs into the caramel and arrange on a serving platter in a circular pattern.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).

• Turn the heat up to medium-high, whisking constantly to prevent any lumps. Allow the mixture to thicken, stirring until smooth.
• Transfer the custard into three small bowls. Drop different colors of dye in each bowl and mix.

• Bake for 20 minutes until the pastry has risen considerably and the insides are dry.
• Allow the pastries to cool. Then, using the tip of a knife, cut a small "x" into the bottom of each pastry and transfer ("x" side up) to a cooling rack. This will allow any excess steam or moisture to escape, ensuring your pastries maintain their shape.
• Transfer the custard to a piping back alternating the colors in order for the custard to swirl inside the pastry.
• Fill each pastry with custard.
• In a bowl, melt the white chocolate chips and vanilla, and swirl teal, pink, and purple dye in order to create a purple marble shell.
• Dip the top of each cream puff in the chocolate and garnish with sprinkles of your choice.
