Change case preserving the same case

how can i do a case insensitive search/replace but keep the same case?

e.g., i want to change a word like

apple-pie to orange-cake

but for the first word if the first letter of the keyword or the letter after the - is capitalised i want to preserve that

e.g., if the before is:

Apple-pie

output should be:
Orange-cake

If the before is: Apple-Pie
output should be Orange-Cake

thanks
