Made this apple cake a while ago, and finally got the photos uploaded. The cake was moist and delicious.

Also added 1/2 cup chopped pecans to the apples, and it was a great addition.

If you can't find orange cake mix, use white or golden---just use orange juice in place of the water when preparing the mix, and add 1 tsp. of orange extract/flavoring. To the topping I also add 3/4 tsp. each of vanilla and orange extract. Garnish, if desired, with Mandarin orange segments.
