Add icon to a link cakephp 2

I'd like to add a icon <i> tag to a Cakephp link. Here is my code :

<?= $this->Html->link($this->Html->tag('i', '', array('class' => 'fa fa-shopping-cart')).'Cart', array('controller' => 'shop', 'action' => 'cart')) ?>

This line generates :

<a href="/cakephp-shopping-cart/shop/cart">&lt;i class="fa fa-shopping-cart"&gt;&lt;/i&gt;Cart</a>

Why < is replaced by its hexa value? My charset is UTF-8.

Thanks!

Add option 'escape' set to false:

<?= $this->Html->link($this->Html->tag('i', '', array('class' => 'fa fa-shopping-cart')).'Cart', array('controller' => 'shop', 'action' => 'cart'), array('escape' => false)) ?>
