Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease and flour a 10-inch tube or bundt pan. In a mixing bowl, combine oil and both sugars; add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. In another bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda and salt; add to batter and mix well. Fold in apples, and walnuts if used; pour into prepared pan. Bake 1-1/2 hours or until cake tests done. Cool in the pan about 10 minutes; remove to a wire rack to cool completely.

Meanwhile, in the top of a double-boiler over simmering water, heat brown sugar, cream, butter and salt, stirring until sugar is dissolved. Cool to room temperature; beat in confectioner's sugar until smooth. Drizzle over cake; sprinkle with nuts if desired.
