Without a heartbeat, blood does not circulate. Without blood circulating through the body (animal or human), cells do not use or create energy. Without energy being created, the blood cools and the tissues cool, from skin first to deeper tissues. Therefore, the body's "cooling" begins almost immediately, from warmest to coolest.
NOTE: The icy coldness of a body is typically after it has been kept refrigerated in the hospital morgue, city or county morgue, or at the funeral home. If the body was kept in any other situation, it's outermost temperature would be slightly less than the environment and would usually have rapid decomposition.
