In a large heavy saucepan bring oil to 365 degrees.  This will take about 12 minutes or so.  Cut mozzarella into 1/2 inch x 1/2 inch strips.  Put eggs and water in bowl.  Stir to make sure combined.  Place breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese and garlic powder in a separate bowl.  Roll each cheese strip in flour, place in egg and then roll in the breadcrumb mixture.  Fry cheese sticks in small batches of 2 to 3 for approximately 30 seconds or until golden.  Place on paper towel to drain off grease.  Be sure oil returns to 365 degrees before adding more cheese strips.

Drain, allow to cool and crumble.  Mash egg yolks with a fork.  Blend in mayonnaise, crumbled bacon, cheese, honey mustard and pepper.  Place a spoon full of yolk mixture into each egg white.  Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.  Sprinkle paprika on top of eggs before serving.
