In Slide Master view:

1. Add a text placeholder to your layout and select the placeholder (not the text).
2. From the Drawing Tools | Format tab select Edit Shape | Change Shape and select the callout shape you want applied.Set the colour for the Shape Outline.
3. Close Slide Master view.
4. Add a new slide with the layout you just created/edited. You will now have an editable, preformatted callout.
