Okay this may be a dumb question but I was hoping someone here could help me. Last year I entered a cake in the fair and it took first place (yea!) but I also got a high blue ribbon. What is the High Blue for and what does it mean?

Could you please tell me if you got any other ribbons etc for the first place win, as well as the High Blue ribbon.
Congratulations, by the way!

I have very little experience in actual cake decorating contests but in all modesty, a vast amount of competition experience in other areas, all related to Agricultural & Horticutural Shows.
Our family has been involved in competing & judging at these shows for over 3 generations.
A High Blue means a High Point Overall Win in a set group of classes & is nearly always based on an overall pointscore total.
Example; there might be 10 classes, all listed under one category.
Each class will have it's winner & minor placings.
The High Point Blue Winner has received the most points out of any entry in those 10 classes.
This system applies to a vast range of competitions, from sewing & handcrafts to horses,ponies & sheep!
I hope this may be of some help to you.
