ampersand in dom with utf-8

[jonathan <news_php@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm now getting this error:

XML Parsing Error: undefined entity

with the following entity at the first ampersand:
<item_name>farm lettuces with reed avocado, cr&egrave;me  
fra&icirc;che, radish and cilantro</item_name>

Why is an ampersand considered an undefined entity? The xml version  
is: <?xml version="1.0"?>

Any thoughts please?
